Speed Reading is it possible?
Is it possible for the mind to comprehend so much information that it barely has time to recognize? Can some people really read 10 novels a week or is this unreal? Are only moderately above average speeds possible?

Speed reading gets the 'gist' of the material.
It's the equivalent of taking one bite out of every food item and then claiming you ate everything at the buffet (which, technically, is true).
